Definitely interesting. A third option has come up, which is to use the sssd system (WNPP: #579593) from Fedora (also in Ubuntu). Btw, when I have your attention on the topic. If one is to use nslcd in a roaming setup, what would be your recommondations for the timeouts specified in nslcd.conf? Will nslcd react properly when the network is up but the ldap server do not respond any more because the local machine changed IP address? I suspect a good aproach would be to stop nslcd when the network is down or the LDAP server is unavailable, to make sure everything keep responding quickly when disconnected. Party related to the topic, do you know if there is some work in progress to handle nsswitch.conf configuration in Debian?
